For Sale: Trick R Treat

jmh314There hasnt been any news on the horror anthology Trick r Treat since it got delayed indefinitely and I know people have been wondering it's status. Well for those of you hoping to see this film land at theaters sometimes this Halloween season, that is going to hinge on finding a distributor. Bloody-Disgusting broke the news that Warner Bros no longer has any plans to release the film and that Trick r Treat will be sold off to the highest bidder(assuming there are multiple companies with interest).

Obviously since this is a completed project there is still a chance we will see Trick r Treat eventually, but the film will be on life support until a new distributor steps into the fold. Quite frankly, I think it seemed like Warner Bros didnt know what to do with this film since the beginning, with all the release date changes. There have been some early screenings of this film and from the looks of multiple online reviews this film was going to be rather enjoyable. I hope they can get a distributor for it soon and get this film out as it's a shame that an original horror project is stuck in release hell.

It is said that Halloween is the night when the dead rise to walk among us and other unspeakable things roam free. The rituals of All Hallows Eve were devised to protect us from their evil mischief, and one small town is about to be taught a terrifying lesson that some traditions are best not forgotten.

Nothing is what it seems when a suburban couple learns the dangers of blowing out a Jack-o-Lantern before midnight; four women cross paths with a costumed stalker at a local festival; a group of pranksters goes too far and discovers the horrifying truth buried in a local legend; and a cantankerous old hermit is visited by a strange trick-or-treater with a few bones to pick. Costumes and candy, ghouls and goblins, monsters and mayhem…the tricks and treats of Halloween turn deadly as strange creatures of every variety—human and otherwise—try to survive the scariest night of the year.
